Chapter 122: Learn More
Wen Zifu bowed to Qiu Xian and said, "I am a native of Lin'an. I have brought my relatives to Beijing to take up my post. This is my daughter and niece."
Wen Yan and Wen Jing greeted Qiu Xian and retreated behind Wen Zifu obediently.
Qiu Xian said in surprise: "This girl doesn't seem to be the one who was on the deck just now."
"That's also a little girl," said Wen Zifu, "and my mother kept her by her side, but she couldn't come."
Qiu Xian stopped asking, led everyone into the cabin, and said, "I have introduced myself before. Do you still want to take a look at my road ray?"
Wen Zifu waved his hand with a smile.
Qiu Xian was very active, but Wen Zifu refused, but he insisted on showing a way out.
"Really, there is no fraud, nor is it an impostor." Qiu Xian said with a loud laugh.
"Brother Qiu is really humorous." Wen Zifu said.
As the cabin of the hall has prepared wine and food, Qiu Xian invited Wen Zifu to take the seat and asked the maid to take the Wen sisters to see his sister.
Miss Qiu was in the room. When she saw the guests coming, she whispered softly: "My name is Qiu Ran."
Qiu Ran looked a few years older than Wen Yan. She looked pretty and was sitting on the couch just now.
The room was lit with spices, which were a faint fragrance of magnolia.
He was dressed elegantly and wore a few jade jewelry on his head, probably for the convenience of embroidery, and nothing else was left on his fingers except a thimble.
Wen Jing introduced herself, her eyes fell on the embroidery bandage, and said, "The pomegranate flower is so beautiful."
Compared with his brother Qiu Xian, Qiu Ran is not only a lot different in age, but even his vision and preferences are completely different.
Wen Yan sat down and said with a smile: "Our boat was blocked on the waterway. I asked my uncle and asked him to drink whatever he wanted. After asking, I realized that it was Sister Qiu who was bored. He saw that there were girls of similar age on our boat and wanted us to talk to my sister for a while."
Qiu Ran smiled gently: "My brother is always too enthusiastic. If you cause trouble, I will apologize to him."
Wen Yan said: "It's not troublesome. Meeting is fate. I'm just thinking that your brother and sister are so good."
Qiu Ran smiled: "My brother takes good care of me. Although he didn't grow up together, he is a good brother."
"Didn't you grow up together?" Wen Yan pretended to be curious and murmured. Seeing Qiu Ran looking at her, she quickly waved her hand and looked embarrassed, "I'm not going to peek at something, sister."
"It's okay," Qiu Ran said without any dislike, "I am far from my brother. He got married in Beijing, and I grew up in Yuanzhou. I didn't see him until my father died and my brother rushed back from Beijing from Yuanzhou.
After that, I lived with my brother, and my parents were gone, so he couldn't rest assured that I was."
Wen Yan smiled and listened to Qiu Ran's words. It sounded like there was no problem on the surface, but there were strange things when you looked at it carefully.
Qiu Min passed away six or seven years ago. Qiu Ran was eight or nine years old at that time. Why hadn’t he seen his brother and sister before?
If she remembered correctly, Qiu Xian and his original wife had been married for four years, which means that when Qiu Xian got married, Qiu Ran looked four or five years old.
The previous moves between the brother and sister were actually less than those of Wen Yan and Lin'an's old house.
Wen Yan thought to herself, but said, "There is such a dedicated brother. If you know him in the spring, you must be very pleased.
Yes, my sister just said that Brother Ling is getting married, isn’t my sister-in-law on the boat?
Or is she taking care of the children in Beijing, and you took a boat back to Beijing to reunite with her?"
When talking about his sister-in-law, Qiu Ran's smile faded and sighed, "I'm going to tell you that my sister-in-law is no longer alive. She sent her father back to her hometown and was seriously injured and was not rescued. I had only been with my sister-in-law for a short time, but she is really a good person and I like her very much."
"Ah!" Wen Yan covered her mouth and exclaimed, "I don't know, Sister Qiu is mourning."
Wen Jing sat behavedly, not interrupting actively, and watched Wen Yan act.
Wen Hui told her that Qiu Xian was Lord Bi’s former niece and son-in-law. The niece sent her father-in-law to the ground and turned into a can of ashes when she came back, which was difficult for Lord Bi to accept.
Wen Yan boarded the boat because she wanted to try to inquire about some old things.
Wen Jing was afraid that her cooperation would not be good, so she dragged Wen Yan back, so she became a well-behaved person, observing Qiu Ran and Wen Yan.
Wen Yan was still tempting Qiu Ran to speak, saying that he was wrong, saying that he was treated, and saying that Qiu Xian later ignited the fire.
The more Wen Jing listened, the more she admired her. If she hadn't known that Wen Yan had something to do, she wouldn't have noticed the inducement from the question, nor would she have any repulsion. She just thought it was a rush and said it along.
With Qiu Ran's story, Wen Yan was sometimes surprised and sometimes sad, with accurate expressions and extremely emotional.
No wonder Cao asked her and Wen Hui to learn more from Wen Yan.
Wen Yan's ability to dominate the situation is enough for her to learn for a long time.
Thinking of this, Wen Jing couldn't get distracted anymore, so she was surprised and sad.
Although she can't guide her, she can still do this expression.
In just two quarters of an hour, Qiu Ran opened her heart to Wen Yan.
"I will live in Beijing from now on. I must interact more and talk to you. I am very happy." Qiu Ran said.
Wen Yanyi smiled and nodded: "My uncle has just been transferred to Beijing. I don't know where we will live after arriving in Beijing, where my sister's house lives, and we will go to play with you after we settle down."
Qiu Ran got up, went to the desk to write down the detailed residence, gently blew the paper dry, and handed it to Wen Yan.
Wen Yan smiled and said, "My sister's handwriting is so beautiful."
Wen Jing also echoed: "It's true, my sister is so amazing. Her flowers are so embroidered vividly and her handwriting is well written."
Qiu Ran’s cheeks were slightly red: “It was all taught by my mother.”
The three of them talked about it for almost an hour, and it was late at night, and Wen Zifu asked them to call them back.
Qiu Ran was reluctant to leave: "If the ship still couldn't move tomorrow, come over again."
Wen Yan responded and left with Wen Jing.
Wen Zifu stood in the aisle outside the hall, his face smelling alcohol.
Wen Yan glanced inside, Qiu Xian fell on the table, and the two servants were helping him get up.
Qiu Xian couldn't stand straight, and even shouted to Wen Zifu: "I'm still drinking, I'm still drinking!"
The enemy's manager couldn't help but apologize to Wen Zifu: "It makes you laugh."
Back on his own boat, Wen Zifu asked Wen Jing to leave first, then pressed his eyebrows and said to Wen Yan: "He knew I was going to take over as Shuntian Tongzhi, so he said that he had some relationship with Lord Bi, but because of a misunderstanding, Lord Bi hated him very much.
You are right, he is arrogant and arrogant, and the topic revolves around Lord Bi, and even said bluntly that Lord Bi questioned his killing of his wife."
What's even more exaggerated is that Qiu Xian didn't know if he was too drunk, so he shook his head and asked Wen Zifu: "Mr. Wen, look at me, do you think I am a person who can kill his first wife?"
However, Wen Zifu couldn't drink anymore, and he only had that much alcohol. If he drinks again, he might be the one who makes a mistake.
Wen Yan said: "Qiu Ran is very simple and has no precautions for the people she met. The old things back then were an accident from her description."
Wen Zifu nodded: "It's getting late, Sister Yan will go back and rest, let's talk about it tomorrow."
No words all night.
Wen Yan was awakened at dawn the next day. She rushed to the deck and looked at the enemy's boat. Qiu Xian cried and screamed.
"You know she has night travel disease, how could you not close the door!" Qiu Xian shouted heartily and picked up someone from the deck, "Aran, Aran!"
Wen Yan was stunned.
She saw that the person who was picked up and could not move even if he moved was Qiu Ran.
